"For my book, I was researching the Franklin Delano Roosevelt quote, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself,” and I ran across the full text of the 1933 inaugural address from which that quote is taken.
As I read this today with all the news about the financial markets, I realized that it is good to have a sense of history and where we’ve been and where we are now. Seems much of what FDR wrote about is in play today.
In the speech, FDR said:
Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. These dark days will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves and to our fellow men.

Seems we are still working on that one, eh?"

Something to think about, huh?
